Welcome!

I am a behavioral economist studying how people make financial decisions in increasingly digital environments. My research focuses on financial technology adoption, AI and financial decision-making, and behavioral frictions in household finance. I use field experiments, online experiments, and survey-based methods to examine how expectations, information, and institutional design shape financial decision-making.

I am currently Associate Director of Experimental Research at Stanford’s Initiative for Financial Decision-Making. I was previously a Postdoctoral Scholar at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. I am also a fellow at Stanford Impact Labs and was previously affiliated with the Financial Inclusion Through Interoperability Initiative at the Toulouse School of Economics.
